Description

This charming 24 x 24 open-concept cabin is one of the oldest, if not the oldest, standing buildings on the largest lake within Lac Du Flambeau and Minocqua — a stunning 500-acre body of water nestled deep in Wisconsin’s Northwoods.

Originally built in the 1940s by the same architect who designed many of the surrounding homes on this side of the lake, the Rustic Shack is steeped in history. Though it was once considered a luxury for its time, it now offers a rugged yet warm, and cozy retreat, preserving the character and simplicity of the era.

Inside, you’ll find all the essentials: high-speed Wi-Fi, a cozy bunkbed setup, a functional kitchenette, and a private bathroom. The layout is open and inviting — ideal for solo travelers or couples looking to unplug and reconnect with nature.

Despite all the rustic, charming qualities you’ll realize that you're not here for the walls — you're here for the million-dollar view! Step out your front door and take in the vast, sparkling lake just steps away. Spend your days fishing, paddling, swimming, hiking, or simply sitting by the shore doing absolutely nothing. The real luxury is outside, where the sounds of loons and wind through the pines replace city noise, and sunsets over the water are the only clock you'll need.

Unfortunately, I did not get to enjoy a night here.The extreme cold weather (-30 degrees) kept me from checking in on Friday night, so I ended up checking in on Saturday Morning. Cabin was wonderful, super clean and very rustic. Perfect for a weekend away.I was in town for a conference at the local casino, so I checked in, scoped the place out, and left for the day.Upon my arrival after the conference, i walked in, turned the lights on and found the cabin flooded with water. A pipe must have froze up (it was -22 when I got back) causing the connections on the water softener to come loose and flood the house.I messaged the owner right away. He lives next door and came right over. We got the water shut off and contained the flooding.The owner did refund me some of my money for the stay. I do look forward to staying there at some point when the weather isn't so cold!!Thanks for everything!!

Adorable , clean and updated cabin. Everything you needed was supplied. The views were amazing. Definitelywill come back. Oh and the beach is sandy and shallow for little kids but too shallow for fishing off the dock. I give it a 10!!

I had a lovely solo getaway here. The host was very friendly and responsive. The shack is simple and has everything you need for a few nights away. The bed was comfortable. I loved drinking coffee and reading off the dock each morning. The lake is crystal clear and so clean!

The host is kind and accommodating, check in and out was super easy, and the lake veiw is beautiful. The area is very quiet and peaceful. The floore was pretty dirty, definitely leave shoes on inside, but it did seem to partially be from renovations.
